Forsberg's Last Game?

Peter Forsberg suffered a concussion after being cross-checked into the boards during a game in the Swedish League a couple of nights ago.

It was Forsberg's first game back after missing six weeks with a broken hand. His father coaches the team, MoDo, and says this:

"He's had his share of concussions, I think it is enough now (to cause him to retire)"

The player who made the illegal hit was ejected from the game and has been suspended for the next two.

1 He played the game so hard for so long, it was bound to happen. He may well be the best complete player I've ever had the pleasure of watching play.

2 As an Avs fan, I'm saddened but not surprised. Of course, who knows when/if the Avs will ever play again, with or witout Forsberg.
